my mom's friend, her youngest kid is 42, he twisted his ankle a few months ago and his foot became swollen.
finally went to the hospital and he has foot cancer and they want to amputate it instead of nuking it

I think he should go for a second opinion first

It's like Breast Cancer. Just cut them off. Still in the dark ages, aren't we!

Sounds like he let it go for a long time.

he was not aware until it starting turning colors and had no clue it was cancer, I mean it's kinda rare but not unheard of
just seems like a strange place to get it

sure his mom who has a 4 year in biology will take him for a second but the doctor knew it was cancer when he looked at, now it's just a matter of insurance and if it spread to his bones or his knee, he might lose more than a foot

I had to Google foot cancer because I've never heard of it before -

Types of Cancers Affecting the Feet

Many foot cancers cause no pain. If you notice an unusual spot on your foot, consult with a podiatrist immediately.

it's been determined he has to lose his right foot and get a fake one to try and drive.
right now they are doing CT scans to discover if it's spread anywhere which is very likely
could have

I am praying for the best possible for him.

The used to be unheard of eyeball cancer is on the rise too. Maybe one day we will be able to get back to researching cures for these things even if it won't be for the next 3.5 years.

You guys just won't stop.

Ending cancer research which can save lives is not TDS. It's using ones brain to think because research is the only way to discover new treatments.

Maybe someone can explain that to that brain damaged jerkoff in Washington who you MAGA dolts reelected. Put it in block letters in crayon to explain it to that assclown.

Biden's "Cancer Moonshot" hit by Trump's cuts to research at Harvard and Columbia​

Brugge said the university had informed her that her research into mutations linked to breast cancer, as well as studying the recurrence of ovarian cancer, was among some 350 federal grants terminated at Harvard Medical School.

Harvard bioengineering professor David Mooney said all cancer research funding from NIH's National Cancer Institute for his team had also been cut off, including multiple grants to post-doctoral research fellows.

The Trump administration also terminated millions awarded for developing anti-cancer immunity at the university's immuno-engineering center, which was launched in 2020 as part of the "Cancer Moonshot" initiative. Mooney's lab was the first to engineer an "implantable biomaterial cancer vaccine" to retrain the immune system to destroy cancer cells, the university says.

"This will dramatically diminish our ability to make progress in developing cancer immunotherapies," Mooney said in an email.

Under versions of the cancer initiative launched by Biden first as vice president in 2016 — and later rebooted in 2022 after he was elected president — the federal government poured more than $1 billion into a broad array of research, prevention and treatment projects.

That money came largely from the 21st Century Cures Act passed by Congress in 2016, which went to more than 100 different institutions. It included millions awarded to support the work of cancer centers around the country.

That also included a long-running award to support the Herbert Irving Comprehensive Cancer Center at Columbia University and New York-Presbyterian Hospital. Now federal records show the award to support Columbia's cancer center has also been terminated.

Dump truck loads of Taxpayer money does not equal progress. Americans pay more for "education" than anyone else. Are we the most educated?

when it comes to scientific research. or should i say came?

This nation, the wealthiest in the world, is the leader in foot cancer. Wonderful.
